Stating the b* obvious I know, but the one major factor that definitely increases the fan base is success on the pitch, sustained in the league and getting past the first few rounds of the cup(s). Middlesbrough away has (in my opinion) put paid to the first of the cups, and I still need to be convinced we can do the league bit. Despite their turmoil, I fear Mansfield are better equipped than us, as are Lincoln. Despite the bookies odds, I would put us 6th or 7th in the pecking order.
Roll on Saturday, 3 points will put me at ease.
